 Background:Vibration sense was assessed in patients with lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS), and the association with body balance was evaluated.

 Method:The subjects of this study were 73 patients who underwent surgery for the treatment of LSS. Their vibration detection threshold (VDT) was evaluated by applying a Rydel-Seiffer graduated tuning fork, which provides quantitative outcome measures of vibration sense and can be applied rapidly at the bedside, over the coccyx. The patients were also examined for the Romberg sign and wide-based gait. We divided the patients into two groups:a radicular LSS (R group) and an equine caudal/combined LSS (E group).

 Results:VDT was significantly decreased in the E group, and the Romberg sign and wide-based gait were significantly more common in the E group than in the R group.

 Conclusion:Vibration sense was actually present in the equine caudal/combined LSS patients, and was significantly associated with both the presence of the Romberg sign and a wide-based gait.
